That is it from this game. There is a double-header coming up tomorrow. Do tune in for those encounters. For now, goodbye and take care!

Ankit Lamba, Man of the Match: I had been having problems with some of my stroke making and I had to work on them. All I wanted to do was to bat 20 overs as my first game didn't go well. It is a very important tournament as there are very less local T20 competitions. The win gives us a boost after losing our first game.

Udaipur were bossing the game when they had Ajmer reeling at 53 for 6, but a 48-run stand between Chandan and Aftabuddin gave Ajmer a hope of overhauling the target. However, the wicket of Aftabuddin gave Udaipur the upper hand even as Chandan kept smashing them at one end. With only three wickets needed, Honey Jeet provided two in one over before Suresh finished off proceedings. Earlier, it was Ankit Lamba's hundred that gave Udaipur a decent total to defend.

13.4

Suresh to Chandan Choudhary, out Bowled!! Udaipur win by 30 runs. Suresh has the last say in his battle with Chandan. Tonked for three fours in the over and he comes back with a wicket. Slows it up considerably and Chandan had left the crease to play the big shot, fails to connect and the ball crashes into off-stump. A fist pump from Suresh to celebrate the wicket. Chandan Choudhary b Suresh 40(21) [4s-5 6s-2]

Suresh to Chandan Choudhary, THAT'S OUT!! Bowled!!

13.3

Suresh to Chandan Choudhary, FOUR, another boundary. Chandan knows he's the one to do it for his team. Clears his front leg and heaves it across the line targeting the cow corner fence, one bounce and ove the rope

13.2

Suresh to Chandan Choudhary, FOUR, back to back boundaries. Once again uses his feet to reach the ball and drives it through extra cover. Mid-off was inside the ring and he just had to pick the ball from the rope

13.1

Suresh to Chandan Choudhary, FOUR, Chandan keeps fighting a lone battle. Couple of steps down the wicket and then thumps the drive back past the bowler, who tried to stop it with his boot but in vain

Suresh Kumar [1.0-0-12-1] is back into the attack

Amit Jaif, right handed bat, comes to the crease

12.6

Honey Jeet to Shamshad Khan, out Bowled!! Two in two for Honey Jeet. Udaipur are one wicket away from sealing this. The arm-ball which kept arrowing in, Shamshad was rooted to the crease and was beaten on the inside edge, the ball ricochets off the pad to kiss the off-stump. Shamshad Khan b Honey Jeet 0(1)

Honey Jeet to Shamshad Khan, THAT'S OUT!! Bowled!!

Shamshad Khan, right handed bat, comes to the crease

12.5

Honey Jeet to Ankur Sharma, out Bowled!! Needless! He was batting so sensibly and with his skipper at the other end striking them cleanly, all Ankur had to do was give the strike to him. Instead he races down the wicket looking for a big shot, misses it completely and the ball crashes into middle stump. Ankur Sharma b Honey Jeet 3(5)

Honey Jeet to Ankur Sharma, THAT'S OUT!! Bowled!!

12.4

Honey Jeet to Chandan Choudhary, leg byes, 1 run, drifting down and Chandan glances it off the pads to short fine

12.3

Honey Jeet to Chandan Choudhary, no run, pushed to cover and Ankur was halfway down for a single, sent back as the ball was not picked up by the fielder. Had he done so and lobbed it back to Honey Jeet, Ankur was a goner

12.2

Honey Jeet to Chandan Choudhary, SIX, dragged down and Chandan is all over it. He cleared his front leg to get a clean swing of the arms, smacked over the long-on fence. That went a long way

10.6

Suresh to Ankur Sharma, no run, tossed up on off, blocked solidly off the front foot

10.6

Suresh to Ankur Sharma, 5 wides, horrible bowling this. Darted way down the leg-side and the poor keeper had no chance of getting across. Five bonus runs for Ajmer

Ankur Sharma, right handed bat, comes to the crease

10.5

Suresh to Aftabuddin, out Caught by Amandeep!! Whatta catch! Amandeep has plucked it out of thin air. Flighted delivery on off, Aftabuddin comes down the track and chips it over mid-wicket, he thought he had done enough to get it over the fielder. Amandeep timed his jump and went one-handed to catch that. Even the bowler was shocked that the catch was taken. Aftabuddin c Amandeep b Suresh 32(16) [4s-5 6s-1]

10.1

Suresh to Aftabuddin, 1 run, why was that not a no-ball? A high full toss well over the waist and Aftabuddin helps it over backward square, the ball plugs in the outfield and the duo only take a single. But the umpire deems it as a legal delivery

Suresh Kumar, comes into the attack

9.6

Amandeep to Aftabuddin, 1 run, turns in sharply and foils Aftabuddin's attempted drive, off the inside edge to deep mid-wicket

9.5

Amandeep to Aftabuddin, FOUR, lovely shot! A difficult one to play against an off-spinner. Aftabuddin read the flight on the delivery and went inside out over extra cover. One bounce and over the rope

9.4

Amandeep to Aftabuddin, SIX, dropped! Second six of the over and Amandeep is leaking plenty. Dances down and takes it on the full, heaves it towards deep mid-wicket, where the fielder tries to reverse cup, only for the ball to burst through

9.3

Amandeep to Chandan Choudhary, 1 run, hesitation and eventually they get the run. Chandan cut it to backward point and his partner wanted the single, sent back and the throw was not backed up

9.2

Amandeep to Chandan Choudhary, SIX, the wet ball might be causing a few problems for the bowlers to grip it. Another full toss and Chandan capitalizes, swings it over the deep mid-wicket fence

Saleem to Aftabuddin, 1 run, full toss which is miscued over the bowler, long-on tidies up

8.2

Saleem to Aftabuddin, FOUR, what happened there? The ball slips out Saleem's hand and is nowhere near the 22-yard surface. Aftabuddin saw a scoring opportunity and took it, reached the ball on the full and whacked it over extra cover. The umpire first declared it a dead-ball but after a consultation with his partner, he signals four

7.5

Amandeep to Aftabuddin, no run, dabbed towards backward point

7.4

Amandeep to Aftabuddin, FOUR, hat-trick of fours. Tossed up outside off, Aftabuddin slices it over the infield and since there is no sweeping on the off-side the ball trickles into the fence

7.3

Amandeep to Aftabuddin, FOUR, consecutive boundaries for Aftabuddin. A full toss which he does not miss out, lifted it over the mid-on fielder and the ball raced away to the fence

7.2

Amandeep to Aftabuddin, FOUR, flighted on a fullish length and Aftabuddin gets to the pitch of the ball before thumping down the ground. Mid-on inside the ring and it was well wide of him

Aftabuddin, right handed bat, comes to the crease

6.4

Saleem to Jattin Kumar, out Caught by Honey Jeet!! Another one bites the dust. Ajmer are now six down and staring down the barrel. Short of length delivery outside off, Jattin hangs back and drills it straight to cover. The idea was to go over the fielder, but he didn't get the elevation. Jattin Kumar c Honey Jeet b Saleem 3(6)

Saleem to Jattin Kumar, THAT'S OUT!! Caught!!

6.3

Saleem to Jattin Kumar, 2 runs, in the air and safe. Jattin tries to go inside out and he got more height than distance. Just about clears the infield and the duo race back for the second

Amandeep to Rajan Pratap, out Caught by Mukesh!! Ajmer keep losing wickets. Appeal for caught behind and the umpire took his time before nodding and raising the finger. The quicker delivery outside off, Rajan wanted to cut and all he could manage was an edge to the keeper. It was not that short to be playing the cut. Rajan Pratap c Mukesh b Amandeep 31(16) [4s-3 6s-2]

Amandeep, comes into the attack

Jattin Kumar, right handed bat, comes to the crease

4.6

Saleem to Sumit Raj, out Caught&Bowled!! As easy as it gets for Saleem. Sumit comes down the track and takes it on the full, the ball was dipping on him and hence could not connect with the drive, toe-ends it back to the bowler, who makes a slight juggle before clinging on. Sumit Raj c and b Saleem 2(4)

Saleem to Sumit Raj, THAT'S OUT!! Caught&Bowled!!

4.5

Saleem to Rajan Pratap, 1 run, full toss and Rajan has missed, drives it meekly past the bowler and down to long-off

4.4

Saleem to Rajan Pratap, no run, another slider on off, Rajan stays leg-side of the ball and punches to cover-point

4.3

Saleem to Rajan Pratap, FOUR, dangerous, but effective. The arm-ball which skids off the surface. Rajan waited till the last second before cutting it towards short third man, played it off the stumps almost. The fielder dives over the ball and allows a boundary

Sumit Raj, right handed bat, comes to the crease

3.5

Ummed Meena to Sandeep Soni, out Caught by Mukesh!! Second wicket of the over and it is a nought for Sandeep. Ajmer are in trouble now.

Sandeep Soni c Mukesh b Ummed Meena 0(3)

Ummed Meena to Sandeep Soni, THAT'S OUT!! Caught!!

3.5

Ummed Meena to Sandeep Soni, wide, third wide of the over, Ummed Meena fires it full and outside off, the ball keeps shaping away further past Sandeep's flashing drive

3.4

Ummed Meena to Sandeep Soni, no run, back of a length outside off, Sandeep can't seem to meet with the cut shot, that is because his feet are stuck to the crease, a shuffle would allow him to connect

3.4

Ummed Meena to Sandeep Soni, wide, now the bouncer which is way too high for the umpire's liking. Sandeep tried to pull, but it was well over him, another extra added to the total

3.4

Ummed Meena to Sandeep Soni, wide, almost similar to the previous delivery, but the line is well outside off, cutting the tramline and the umpire calls it a wide

3.3

Ummed Meena to Sandeep Soni, no run, short and outside off, Sandeep slashes and connects with nothing

Sandeep Soni, right handed bat, comes to the crease

3.2

Ummed Meena to Ajay Beniwal, out Bowled!! Cleaned 'im up. Movement for Ummed Meena and Ajay was late in bringing his bat down, the ball nipped back in on a fullish length, Ajay was beaten for pace, missed the flick and the ball took a deflection off the pad. Crashing into off-stump. Ajay Beniwal b Ummed Meena 12(10) [4s-2]

Ummed Meena to Ajay Beniwal, THAT'S OUT!! Bowled!!

3.1

Ummed Meena to Ajay Beniwal, no run, we have a run-out appeal, and the third umpire has been called in. Nah, no problems at all. Pratap is home comfortably. Short of length, Beniwal mistimes the flat-batted pull to mid-off and his partner looks for a single. Sent back in time

2.6

Jagsimran to Rajan Pratap, FOUR, this one's a fortuitous boundary, but it's short and wide yet again from Jagsimran. It bounces steeply though and Pratap can't get his wrists on top of the ball as he flashes a cut. But it flies away off the top-edge over slip

Jagsimran to Ajay Beniwal, FOUR, four more, and it's almost an action replay of the previous delivery. After an excellent first over, Jagsimran has bowled back-to-back half-trackers outside off. Beniwal gets on top of the cut and finds the gap through point again

2.3

Jagsimran to Ajay Beniwal, FOUR, short and wide, slapped through point. Ajmer have started really well after the interruption

2.1

Jagsimran to Rajan Pratap, 1 run, short and wide, Pratap cuts hard to backward point who fumbles the ball. Udaipur would do well not to emulate Ajmer in the field

1.5

Ummed Meena to Ajay Beniwal, no run, good length outside off, Beniwal gets across and defends to point

Ummed Meena to Rajan Pratap, SIX, half-volley down leg, Pratap flicks it for six! What timing on the shot. He's come out firing after that rain break

1.2

Ummed Meena to Rajan Pratap, no run, full and wide outside off, Pratap swings and misses

1.1

Ummed Meena to Rajan Pratap, 2 runs, full on leg, Pratap slogs it over mid-wicket. Didn't quite get hold of it all that well, but got it over mid-wicket

The rain has stopped and we are all set to begin.

16:56 Local Time, 11:26 GMT, 16:56 IST: Bit of drizzle around.. As i typed that, it got heavier and the players are running off the field. The groundsmen are covering the pitch and square. Plenty of junior cricketers helping out with the covers. Hopefully it is a passing shower and stops soon. Stay tuned for further updates..

0.6

Jagsimran to Rajan Pratap, 1 run, excellent bowling this from Jagsimran. Goes full this time and gets it to straighten, Rajan attempted the flick as the ball was on middle and leg, the leading edge escapes past backward point

0.5

Jagsimran to Rajan Pratap, no run, plenty of movement for Jagsimran. Back of a length and outside off, the ball might have hit the seam as it jagged away a mile, Rajan was left groping at that - nowhere close to the ball

There is a slip in place..

0.4

Jagsimran to Rajan Pratap, no run, shortish and outside off, Rajan has a half-hearted waft that before withdrawing the bat inside. He was clearly beaten there

0.3

Jagsimran to Ajay Beniwal, 1 run, dropped in front of point and Rajan calls his partner through for a quick single. There was a shy at the bowler's end, but Ajay had made it in even as the ball missed the stumps

0.2

Jagsimran to Ajay Beniwal, no run, back of a length outside off, Ajay has nothing to do with it, lifts his bat and lets it go. Good carry through to the keeper, who takes it head high

Ajay Beniwal, right handed bat, comes to the crease

0.1

Jagsimran to Rajkumar Saini, out Caught by Honey Jeet!! Wow! Wicket off the first ball. What better way to start for Udaipur? Rajkumar waits near the boundary line as the umpire checks for a possible no-ball, Jagsimran has something behind and Rajkumar has to walk back. Full delivery outside off, Rajkumar went after straightaway and drove it uppishly towards cover-point. Honey Jeet held on to a sharp catch. Rajkumar Saini c Honey Jeet b Jagsimran 0(1)

Jagsimran to Rajkumar Saini, THAT'S OUT!! Caught!!

Rajkumar Saini and Rajan Pratap are at the crease. Rajkumar Saini is on strike. Jagsimran will open the attack

Welcome back..

What a classy knock from the Udaipur skipper! The thing which stood out was the ease with which he struck some of the sixes. I can't recollect Lamba going too hard on the ball at any stage, and yet his hundred came off just 55 deliveries and included as many as eight sixes. That's a superb effort. Ajmer were a horror-show in the field with catches going down and boundaries being conceded out of nowhere. They have a stiff target in front of them now. Join us in a bit..

16:37 Local Time, 11:07 GMT, 16:37 IST: The RPL has its first centurion in the form of Ankit Lamba. "In the last match, our batting collapsed," Lamba says. "So I wanted to play the whole 20 overs, which I was able to achieve. Just wanted to capitalize on the loose balls, that was my strategy. On this pitch, 170 is a good score so hopefully we'll able to defend it. At the toss, I said that 150-plus would have been a good score."

19.6

Sandeep Soni to Lamba, 1 run, charges out and defends the ball back down the pitch, Soni tries a back-flick which would have caught Lamba short, but it's well off-target

19.5

Sandeep Soni to Hitesh Solanki, 1 run, short and wide, Solanki cuts to the right of third man where there's another misfield but the fielder recovers in time to prevent the boundary

19.4

Sandeep Soni to Hitesh Solanki, no run, straight back to the bowler

19.3

Sandeep Soni to Lamba, 1 run, Solanki could have been in trouble had Soni kicked the ball into the stumps. Quick call from Lamba after getting an inside edge onto pad, and it would have been really close

19.2

Sandeep Soni to Lamba, SIX, magnificent hundred from the captain, and what a way to get there! Short ball just outside off, Lamba rocks back and smashes the pull over the mid-wicket boundary. The dug-out is pumped for their skipper

Amit Jaif to Lamba, 1 run, short ball in line with the stumps, Lamba top-edges his pull over the keeper's head. It doesn't have the legs to go to the boundary

18.3

Amit Jaif to Hitesh Solanki, 1 run, oh hello! Back of length delivery, it disturbs the top-surface and rears at Solanki who is caught by surprise. He flinches back, and the ball pops up off the shoulder of the bat but doesn't go to hand

18.2

Amit Jaif to Hitesh Solanki, no run, short of length outside off, Solanki fails to ramp it away as it bounces more than he anticipates

Shamshad Khan to Lamba, no run, kicks up from a back of length and beats Lamba on the cut. It was too close to be playing the shot anyway

15.6

Aftabuddin to Lamba, 1 run, flat on leg, tucked through mid-wicket

15.5

15.3

Aftabuddin to Honey Jeet, out Bowled!! Two in two for Aftabuddin. This one's a lovely delivery. Loads of air on the ball, pitches and rips back in through the gate with Jeet trying to flick the ball through mid-wicket. It crashes into middle stump. Aftabuddin on a hat-trick now. Honey Jeet b Aftabuddin 0(1)

Aftabuddin to Honey Jeet, THAT'S OUT!! Bowled!!

Honey Jeet, right handed bat, comes to the crease

15.2

Aftabuddin to Hardeep, out Caught by Ajay beniwal!! Chipped straight to extra-cover. No mistake this time. Flighted off-break which is wide of off and lures Hardeep across. He fails to keep the drive down. Hardeep c Ajay beniwal b Aftabuddin 1(4)

Aftabuddin to Hardeep, THAT'S OUT!! Caught!!

15.1

Jattin Kumar to Lamba, no run, darted on a back of length on off, Lamba hangs back and blocks

13.4

Jattin Kumar to Lamba, SIX, too easy for Lamba, given the form he is in. Flighted off-break, it's too full though and Lamba just swings through the line down the ground for another effortless six. His fifth maximum of the innings

13.3

Jattin Kumar to Hardeep, 1 run, driven to long-off

Hardeep Singh, right handed bat, comes to the crease

13.2

Jattin Kumar to Saleem, out Caught by Amit Jaif!! Jaif redeems himself after misfielding the previous delivery. Floaty full toss, Saleem smashes the sweep to the right of deep square leg.

Jattin Kumar to Saleem, THAT'S OUT!! Caught!!

13.1

Shamshad Khan to Lamba, 1 run, drives away from the body, sends a thick edge down to third man

Shamshad Khan to Pankaj, out Caught by Rajan Pratap!! It's been sliced in the air, and third man takes a good catch running around. Pankaj charged down the track to smash it inside-out, but he got himself too far away from the line of the ball and the outside edge was found.

Sandeep Soni to Pankaj, no run, good length outside off, defended to point

7.4

Chandan Choudhary to Lamba, 1 run, pushes it wide of mid-off

Good afternoon and welcome to the fourth match of the Rajputana Premier League. The format of this tournament is such that each match carries a lot of weight, as every team will play just five matches before the semi-finals. And it's going to carry even more weight today, because both these teams lost their first match and another loss would mean trouble. Both, Udaipur Eagles and Ajmer Panthers, lost by significant margins. However, one also has to remember that this is a new competition and it may take some time for teams to click. Stay tuned for the toss..
